I'd. Ferry.

PARIS, December ia bulletin issued
this evening, says the condition of n.
Ferry is satisfactory.
NJ. Ferry is feyerish to-day, and it is
feared his wounds will be aggravated.
He has received thousands of cards and
letters, and Senators and Deputies of all
parties have called at his residence and
signifed regrets. Auoertin, when ex-
amined by the judge of instruction, de-
elared that he was an anti-revolu-
ZIONIST. He said he was sorry
he had not killed Ferry, and
expressed the hope that others
would be more successful.
Aubertin, the would-be-assassin of
Ferry, is the author of various pamph-
lets and the inventor of several ma
chimes, the failure of which reduced
him to poverty, and brought on occa-
sionel attacks of insane exaltation OF
mind. Aubertin promises to reveal
the names of his accomplices on Tues
day, if the gang does not attempt to as
sassinate some of the members of the
Reuvier Cabinet before that day.
Midnight - The condition of n,
Ferry is now less favorable.

The Theatre Ball.

The grand ball so anxiously looked
forward ito by many persons for the
past two weeks came off last evening,
and proved a grand success. About
$50 couples assembled, and each came
to have a good time; from ex-
pressIons heard at its close, everybody
was we'll satisfied. The floor fairly
scintillated with rich costumes and ele-
CANT jewelry. The music was all that
could be desired, being furnished by
WitEel's band. The arrangements
were all perfect. The Theatre was
lastly decorated. the prompter was in
good voice, and the floor was well pre-.
pared for dancing. The most dis
agreeable thing noticed was the abom-
Unable practice some ladies have
of wearing the that" all through the
evening, even when dancing. 1t is a
rude custom, and should be abolished.
The various committees are TO be con-
graduated on the smooth manner in
which the whole affair passed of.
Twenty four dances made up the pro-
grsmme, and it required until 8 O'Clock
TO finish them.

not known whether Sir Charles Taper

PROPOSED LAWS.

Fifteen bills have been presented in
the Legislature thus far. Mostof these
are in the line of policy indicated in
the speech from the throne. The
bills for the reconstruction of the
Board OF Health, the Board of I'M
migration, and the Board of Educa-
ton, are simply adapting the laws
of the land to the new Constitution.
The old laws left at least the Board
of Education in the position of q
body independent of the Cabinet
and in no way responsible to the
people.
The bills for repeating acts grant
ing permanent settlements to
Messrs. Parke and Everett, and also
Poomaikelani, are in line of strict
economy, and justice to the tax
payers.
The office of the Auditor-Gen
has been of doubtful value to the
public, and its abolition is proposed
as a measure of economy.
The Board Of Genealogies is to go
if bill presented by Mr.. Green is
passed. 1t is time that'the curtain
should fall on that ridiculous farce.
1t has been heavy expense, and its
works has neither done good nor
added dignity to our Government.
Mr.. Browns bill to regulate
Chinese immigration is somewhat of
a surprise, as it seems to belong
properly to the work of regular
session. The bill gives the Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs a great deal
of discretion in the matter, and is
Objectionable on that account.
